CLEARANCE – LIKE NEW – ONE AVAILABLE
The book begins with the British movement and traces the roots of this “new art” including its characteristics, materials, motifs, influences and makers’ marks. Biographical sketches are provided for over 240 of the most influential British designers/jewelers/metalworkers, with discussions of the guilds, schools and commercial firms. In over 700 photographs, nearly 400 in color, the success of these designs to provide fascinating and beautiful objects is demonstrated.
